Abstract: The present invention relates to an internal combustion
engine having a catalytic converter to reduce exhaust gas
emissions. The engine (2) comprises one or more internal
combustion chambers (4), an air supply system (20) for
aspirating the combustion chambers, an exhaust gas system
(19) for carrying away exhaust gas (10) from the
combustion chambers (4), and a secondary air supply system
(60) between the air supply system (20) and the exhaust
gas system (19). The exhaust gas system (19) includes a
catalytic converter (17) for reducing engine emissions,
and the air supply system (20) includes an electrically
driven pressure charging device (18) for pressurising air
supplied (6) to the combustion chambers (4). The secondary
air supply system (60) provides a path for air pressurised
by the pressure charging device (18) to flow (68) from the
air supply system (20) downstream of the pressure charging
device (18) to the exhaust gas system (19) upstream of the
catalytic converter (17) in order to facilitate catalyst
light off.

Abstract: La présente invention exploite le fait qu'il existe des directions préférentielles, notamment dans des parkings couverts. Ces directions préférentielles ne sont pas limitées à un plan ou à une orientation et sont notamment des voies d'entrée et de sortie plus longues. Le procédé selon cette invention permet de détecter un abandon de la zone numérisée, puis de déterminer une telle direction préférentielle qui est définie comme axe principal ou comme direction d'axe principal. Si un véhicule circule dans la zone non numérisée, telle qu'un parking couvert, il est alors surveillé si le véhicule se déplace au sein d'une limite prédéfinie de la direction d'axe principal précédemment définie. Si tel est le cas, l'existence d'une déviation est déterminée, puis cette déviation est éventuellement corrigée sur la direction d'axe principal. Cette invention permet de compenser des erreurs qui sont notamment engendrées par la reconnaissance de direction.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for preparing ester
or thioester that can conduct catalytic esterification reaction
with an equimolar amount of carboxylic acid and alcohol, or
catalytic thioesterification reaction with carboxylic acid and
an equimolar amount or small amount of thiol, and can be expected
as an industrial method that needs an enormous amount of synthesis
in the light of green chemistry. By using hafnium chloride (IV),
especially tetravalent hafnium compounds represented by hafnium
chloride (IV) · (THF) 2  or hafnium (IV)t-butoxide as a (poly)
condensation catalyst, direct condensation reaction is
conducted from carboxylic acid and an equimolar amount of alcohol
or a little smaller amount of thiol , in the nonpolar solvent
such as toluene and the like, in a deoxidization atmosphere and
under heating reflux, and the reaction synthesizes ester monomer
or thioester monomer, polyester or polythioester. When heating
reflux is conducted by using a nonpolar solvent, it is preferable
to remove azeotropic water from the reaction system.

Abstract: Known gas-spring dampers have a tendency to leak around the piston (2), which is detrimental to the damping behaviour. Technical measures that compensate said leakage are complex and expensive from a technical production point of view. The invention therefore proposes the reduction of the pivoting movements of the piston axis in relation to the cylinder axis by providing a second pivot joint (10) between the vehicle bodywork (11) and the pivot joint (17) on the pinion (12) and by interconnecting the two pivot joints (10, 17) by means of a connecting element. In addition, the roll bellows (4) are equipped with variable contact surfaces (X', X''), which are pressure-responsive and ensure a stable balance of forces acting on the piston (2) in each position of travel.
